                We know time constant = R*C.
So = 220*2.2 = 484.
                So = 220*2.2 = 484.

                Because capacitor has of property of charging and discharging initially it starts charging from 0 hence the circuit has very low and resistance hence that is short circuit I flows through the circuit.

                t=rc
time constant = resistance*capacitance
                time constant = resistance*capacitance

                Time constant is equal to multiplication of resistance and capacitance.

                This is right ans-484  
T = RC = 220x2.2 = 484
                T = RC = 220x2.2 = 484

                Time constant =r*c 
=220*2.2=480
                =220*2.2=480

                Its should 484 or we came choose near value.

                Why should a capacitor acts as short circuit at initial switch on period in a circuit?

                t = r*c.
t = 20*2.2.
t = 480.
                t = 20*2.2.
t = 480.

                Time constant =r*c.
